What's signed, sealed, delivered...

UPS contracts. Yesterday, employees voted in favor of a new and improved labor agreement. The shipping company and Teamsters — a union repping more than 340,000 UPS workers — reached a preliminary deal in July. Now, under the new contract, part-time and full-time employees will get around a $7 hourly pay bump. UPS workers will get an additional federal holiday off and no forced overtime on days off. The vote officially avoids a strike that could have disrupted package deliveries and the US economy. One expert expects UPS could offset the higher labor costs with price increases.
